Introduction:

Design, operation, and strategic governance of solar power systems for critical facilities refer to the integrated engineering and managerial structures that ensure energy continuity, resilience, and efficiency in mission dependent environments. These systems are essential for facilities such as defense bases, hospitals, control centers, and communication hubs, where uninterrupted power supply supports security and operational reliability. Their effectiveness depends on precise design, disciplined operation, and structured oversight that connects technical performance with institutional governance. This training program presents comprehensive frameworks, analytical models, and governance structures that enhance system design, operational stability, and long term energy sustainability in critical facilities.
